Long Chen did not continue to speak. He placed one hand on the Molten Moon Star Refining Furnace, and the transparent flames swam back and forth on the Alchemy Furnace.
"Huh? He actually wants to warm the stove? He actually uses such low-level alchemy techniques. Is he really a master of alchemy?" All the disciples looked weird for a while.
Warming is the simplest and most basic alchemy technique, also known as the entry-level technique, but a true master does not need this step.
Because the alchemy cultivator is one with his own furnace, when the owner needs to refine the elixir, the alchemy furnace will preheat itself and enter the alchemy state.
But at this time, Long Chen was performing the most basic movements seriously, and the expert demeanor he had just created was once again questioned by people.
Long Chen's movements can only be regarded as quite satisfactory, but there is nothing surprising about them. He feels like a rigid ordinary alchemy cultivator, without any sense of being a master.
On the other side, Ye Qian's flames rose, he waved his hands, and the power of his soul exploded. On the alchemy furnace, the shadows of a dragon and a phoenix became more and more solid. When the flames changed, they were both strong and soft, mellow and smooth.
Sometimes the flames turn from fierce to feminine and complete in an instant, which makes people's hearts tremble when they see it, but Ye Qian is completely unaware of it. His calm and unhurried look has won the admiration of countless people.
For this technique alone, among the younger generation of alchemists present, only Ye Qian can do it. The name of the first genius is not for nothing. Even though Wan Qing looks down on Ye Qian, she still has to admit that Ye Qian's
The art of alchemy is truly impeccable.
In Wanqing's knowledge, the only person of her generation who could defeat Ye Qian in alchemy was Dan Fairy. She didn't know much about Long Chen, so she was full of worries.
Especially after Long Chen warmed up the furnace, he also started refining the medicinal powder. All the movements were quite satisfactory and there was no skill at all.
As for the Melting Moon Star Refining Furnace, it was always lifeless and looked so weak that it was impossible to take a good look at it.
The sneers and disdain from the outside world never stopped, but Long Chen was still refining the elixir with a very serious look.
In their words, apart from his expression like a master, Long Chen's other actions related to alchemy were in line with the performance of a rookie.
However, no matter how much the outside world laughed at him, Long Chen always maintained his sacred and solemn expression, which was a kind of meticulous concentration.
"Long Chen has been defeated. Although his Water Spirit Flame is the number one flame on the earth fire list, he seems to be unable to fully control it. Many impurities in the precious medicine have not been completely removed." An old man from the Divine Pill Hall.
, shook his head and said.
Based on their experience, they can tell at a glance that some of the medicinal powder refined by Long Chen contains a trace of impurities.
To ordinary disciples, this is already very powerful, but in their eyes, it still lacks a lot.
Especially when facing an opponent like Ye Qian, Ye Qian has the fire of inheritance. Even if there is no pill furnace, he can still refine precious medicines without a trace of impurities.
Long Chen had the aid of the Alchemy Furnace, but some of the precious medicines were still incompletely refined, making people wonder whether Long Chen was incapable of doing it himself or the Alchemy Furnace was too seriously injured.
What they couldn't understand the most was that Long Chen didn't seem to know that there were still impurities in those precious medicines, and he still continued to refine the precious medicines with a serious expression.
"The Melting Moon Star Refining Furnace fell into his hands. It is really a secret act and a waste of natural resources." An elder said unconvinced that the top ten alchemy furnaces in ancient times would fall into the hands of such a rookie alchemist.
, it’s really exciting.
"Actually, we..." A sharp light flashed in the eyes of another elder, but before he could finish speaking, an elder next to him glared at him, and the elder quickly shut up.
They secretly looked at the Alchemy Master, but the Alchemy Master didn't seem to hear what they were saying. His eyes were always staring at Long Chen's movements, as if he was thinking about something.
Most of the eyes of the audience were focused on Ye Qian, because Ye Qian's movements were graceful and elegant, and the flames changed in thousands of ways. Whether you were an alchemy cultivator or a martial arts cultivator, you could learn something from him.
On the other hand, Long Chen's movements were stiff and rigid, nothing surprising. Almost 99% of the people didn't look at him. Even those who looked at him did so to laugh at him.
Feng Fei also frowned at this time, and the maid next to her said: "Sir, why don't we go back? This kind of competition is completely Ye Qian's performance. Here, it is a complete waste of our time."
Feng Fei hesitated for a moment, shook her head and said: "Forget it, let's take another look. Even though we've been here, I always feel that this Long Chen is not a good person. It's really weird for him to jump into such an obvious trap."
"This is true. This Long Chen is so bad. You asked me to investigate his history and found out that along the way, he has tricked many people to death with his dirty tricks." The maid laughed.
Last time in front of the Eighth Heavenly Dragon Army's position, Long Chen didn't give Feng Fei any face and just asked her to leave. She was filled with anger but couldn't let it out.
After going back, after much thought, I finally couldn't help but investigate Long Chen to see where this guy came from.
As a result of this investigation, she and her maids were shocked. Long Chen's growth history was simply a legend.
However, in Long Chen's growth history, he used many disgusting tricks. In the Xuantian Courtyard examination, he pushed people into the river and urinated on them.
He used tricks to deceive a group of people, and finally he got the Queen Bee Honey himself.
Digging a hole under the square, causing the Dragon Blood Legion to have diarrhea, filling up the cesspit, luring a person with mysophobia into the cesspool, etc. There are countless underhanded tricks that Long Chen has used.
The third legion was tricked last time. Compared with Long Chen's previous achievements, it was not a surprising method at all.
Therefore, Long Chen has been labeled by them as a sinister person. It is impossible for such a person to jump into the trap blindly. Therefore, even though it looks boring, they still want to see the final result, otherwise they will always think about it.
Refining so many precious medicines into medicinal powders and liquids is a tedious and boring task, and if there is any mistake in this process, all previous efforts will be wasted.
Therefore, the soul power of alchemy must be strong, otherwise the soul power is insufficient and the human spirit is prone to slackness. Once the spirit is slack, mistakes are not far away.
Time passed little by little. The refining of hundreds of medicinal powders was a huge project. Neither Ye Qian nor Long Chen was slacking off at all.
But people gradually discovered a strange thing, that is, although Ye Qian's movements were gorgeous and graceful, the flames were rising, and he seemed extremely efficient.
However, Long Chen's movements were old-fashioned, slow and clumsy. It stands to reason that Ye Qian's progress should leave Long Chen far behind.
However, the speed of the two people was exactly the same. As many kinds of precious medicines as Ye Qian refined, Long Chen also refined them. Although Ye Qian started in advance, Long Chen's speed was always on par with him.
The order of refining between the two was different, but the progress was almost the same. No matter how hard Ye Qian tried his best, he still could not get rid of Long Chen.
At this time, people finally became alert. They carefully observed Long Chen's movements, and finally someone sneered:
"In order to catch up with the progress, many medicinal powders have not been refined thoroughly, and the colors are mixed and impure. This Long Chen is just talking nonsense."
These disciples don't have the vision of those elders. After all, they don't have that much experience. Only now can they see Long Chen's situation.
As a result, these disciples of the Shendan Hall became even more contemptuous. In order to catch up with the progress, impurities appeared in the medicine powder. This person was hopelessly stupid. You don't have to think about the consequences.
Time flew by, and Long Chen's movements were as dull and clumsy as ever. Almost everyone no longer looked at him, but focused on Ye Qian.
It took three days and three nights to refine the medicinal powder alone, but Long Chen's progress was not slow at all. When Ye Qian finished refining, Long Chen was just finished.
Ye Qian snorted coldly, formed seals with his hands, and blended the medicinal powder into the alchemy furnace bit by bit. The power of the flames increased again. Two figures, a dragon and a phoenix, rotated around him and the alchemy furnace. The scene became more and more shocking.
.
Ye Qian moved, and so did Long Chen, slowly pouring the prepared medicinal powder into the alchemy furnace.
"Surprisingly... use your hands, I'll go."
When everyone watched Long Chen pouring the precious medicine into the alchemy furnace one by one with his hands, all the alchemy cultivators almost had their jaws dropped.
Pouring the powder into the alchemy furnace with your hands seems to be an apprentice's technique, right? Even an entry-level apprentice would have already used his soul to introduce the medicine into the furnace. What is Long Chen doing?
If Long Chen's movements were clumsy before, it would be excusable, but what does it mean to inject medicinal powder with his hands now? Deliberately humiliating the Gods? Does it mean that the Gods have not yet learned the art of alchemy? For a moment, the disciples of the Shendan Hall were angry.
.
"It depends on how arrogant he can be. When the result is announced, will he still be able to laugh? I look forward to seeing him lying on the ground like a dog barking and licking the bricks clean." A disciple of Shendan Hall.
, gritted his teeth and said authentically.
"Buzz"
Suddenly, Ye Qian's alchemy furnace roared, and Ye Qian had closed the furnace. Dragons and phoenixes roared in the sky, and the whole world trembled.
The endless energy between heaven and earth actually formed a huge whirlpool and poured into the alchemy furnace crazily. The momentum was extremely frightening. As soon as this vision came out, the disciples of the Shendan Hall couldn't help but get excited. What the alchemists were looking forward to most.
The time is finally coming.
"Long Chen actually closed the furnace. When did he close the furnace?" Someone was stunned and found that at some point, Long Chen also completed the furnace and entered the final step of alchemy.
"He's just a clown, who cares about him?" Someone sneered, all their energy focused on Ye Qian.
"All the power of heaven is concentrated on Senior Brother Ye Qian. Long Chen can't even absorb a trace of it. It's impossible to turn it into a pill. He is indeed a liar." Someone said coldly.
Because at this time, although the alchemy furnace was closed on Long Chen's side, there was no abnormal phenomenon, and it remained tepid. With Ye Qian here, he could not absorb the power of heaven, and the results of the competition were already out.
"Buzz"
At this moment, the shabby alchemy furnace in Long Chen's hand began to slowly bloom with light, and the patina on his body was ignited. It was like the endless starry sky appeared in front of people, and the vast pressure made the sky change color.
"What?"
For a moment, the strong men present could not help but stand up, staring at the Molten Moon Star Refining Furnace with inexplicable horror in their eyes.
